Kitchen inspiration<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Rutland couple Rebecca and Matt enlisted the help of deVOL to help transform a space in their dilapidated limestone cottage to create an incredible family kitchen, which will double as a cookery school for professional chef Rebecca. The original kitchen at Swan Cottage was so tiny and dark, the couple decided to rip it out entirely to get a better idea of what the space could look like. An extensive reworking has created a fantastically light, bright space, with a hand-aged bespoke copper worktop and integrated sink. Other aspects include an Everhot range cooker, an island and a roomy pantry cupboard.<\/p>\n\n

Rare chimneypiece<\/h4>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

A fine Scottish pine and composition chimneypiece (c1805) by Richard Foster of Edinburgh is being sold by Westland London (\u00a3POA). Removed from an elegant Georgian house on the east coast of Scotland, this unique neoclassical piece is exquisitely designed and richly decorated. Its intricate details include a celebration of the sea in the finely wrought shells, crabs and seaweed, as well as acorns, roses and thistles \u2013 and a remarkable central tablet, depicting Lady Emma Hamilton gazing out to sea. Chimneypieces of this kind were a speciality of Foster, and this is a truly remarkable find. westlandlondon.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Out on the tiles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From reclaimed terracotta to handmade designs inspired by antiques, tiles are a versatile way to bring colour and pattern into your home, finds Molly Malsom <\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Tiles have been used in homes for centuries, from beautiful mosaics decorating ancient Roman villas, to the encaustic floor tiles beloved of the Victorians for their decorative properties and durability. These qualities mean tiles remain popular today, and for anyone concerned about sustainability, reclaimed tiles are an attractive option.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chris Gulson-Brooke founded Maitland & Poate after buying some reclaimed encaustic tiles in Andaluc\u00eda. When sourcing reclaimed tiles, his criteria are quality, a unique pattern and good batch size \u2013 due to their nature, it can be difficult to source reclaimed tiles in large quantities. This is where carefully handcrafted new versions come into their own. \u2018Our new tiles are handmade in Andaluc\u00eda by thirdgeneration artisans using traditional methods,\u2019 says Chris. \u2018They\u2019re made with high-grade marble dust, cement, sand and natural pigment dyes, and sun-baked to dry.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After opening a boutique hotel in C\u00e1diz, Lee Thornley discovered he was adept at sourcing reclaimed tiles, and after meeting local business owner Juanma, Bert & May was born. The company sources its reclaimed terracotta tiles in France, and each has its own unique shape, texture and colour; perfect for a rustic, yet timeless feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
